  • Select either Live Bus Map or Arrival Times. Live Bus Map will let you view the routes and bus stops plotted on a map, and Arrival Times will prompt you to choose from a list of stop names.
    • Live Bus Map
      In the menu on the right side of the screen, select the route you would like to view. The bus will be shown moving along the route, and it will look like an arrow with the bus number next to it. If the arrow is green, the bus is moving. If the arrow is red, the bus is stopped.
    • Clicking or hovering your cursor on the bus will show you: vehicle number, route name, update time, direction of travel, capacity of the bus, and the next bus stops the bus will reach.
    • To view arrival times for your specific bus stop, zoom in on the map with Crtl+Scroll. Click on or hover over the bus stop (shown as a red circle with black outline). You will get a popup that shows the name of the bus stop, which routes use that bus stop, and how soon each of those routes will arrive.
    • Arrival Times
      Click the drop-down menu and select your bus route.
    • Choose a direction of travel. Each route will have a major stop or hub on each end, and you can select which you'd like to travel toward.
    • Choose your bus stop. It will then show a section called Next Vehicles In, which displays how many minutes you'd wait for bus arrival. It will show the next two arrivals and the bus number.
